| Reverse description | Colorized depiction of Benzaiten, the Japanese goddess of everything that flows, shown seated in traditional robes and playing a biwa lute. The figure is rendered in vivid polychrome enamel against the gold field, with serpentine decorative elements flanking the central image. The denomination '$2' appears in the upper left field in Latin numerals, while the Chinese characters '弁财天' are inscribed along the lower margin identifying the deity. The overall composition draws on classical East Asian iconographic conventions. |
